SANTA ANA, CA, December 18, 2008 -- SRS Labs (NASDAQ:SRSL), the industry leader in surround sound, audio, and voice technologies, announced today that SRS TruVolume™ is integrated into VIZIO’s new high-end 55” XVT HDTV and their new HD Sound Bar with Wireless Subwoofer. SRS TruVolume is an advanced, intelligent volume control solution that delivers a remarkable TV viewing experience by eliminating irritating fluctuations in volume all too common in today’s television broadcasts.

The number one complaint of viewers with their television experience is the fluctuation of volume level heard when switching from channel to channel and when programming goes into or out of commercials. An astounding 93% of consumers identify this problem as annoying*.

To solve the problem, SRS invented TruVolume. Unlike competitive automatic gain control solutions, SRS TruVolume’s innovative new approach of measuring, analyzing and controlling volume levels utilizes principles determined by SRS’ extensive study of psychoacoustics – the science of how humans perceive and process sound. SRS TruVolume uses 20 frequency bands that closely model the human hearing mechanism, monitoring and adjusting the audio signal level continuously, resulting in a consistent volume, regardless of fluctuations in the audio source. Users need only to set the volume to their preferred level once, and then sit back and enjoy watching television or listening to music without worrying about sudden or frequent changes in volume level or having to reach for the remote control to adjust volume.

“I believe all of our TVs should have SRS TruVolume going forward,” said VIZIO’s Vice President and Co-Founder, Ken Lowe. “Properly calibrated and intelligently managed audio volume are what consumers expect when they watch TV. SRS TruVolume is a natural. It allows our customers to benefit from the very latest technology, not only enjoying an immersive sound with remarkable clarity, but also the freedom from having to reach for the remote control every time the volume level jumps up or down – simply set it and forget it.” Lowe continued, “The SRS engineering team used its outstanding depth of audio knowledge to custom-tune the system, ensuring that our customers will enjoy the highest quality sound experience, be it for television, DVDs, games or music.”

While abrupt changes in volume are frequently identified as a problem when watching television, other listening environments are also prone to this problem. SRS TruVolume can address this complaint across a wide range of consumer electronics devices, including set-top boxes, AV receivers, PCs, mobile phones, auto sound systems and portable media devices — with users benefiting from a consistent and comfortable listening experience free from dramatic volume fluctuations.

“SRS is excited about working with an innovative, technology-driven partner like VIZIO. We take great pride in the fact that VIZIO recognizes the necessity of our TruVolume solution for optimizing users’ experience and that TruVolume is going to be a critical feature on a broad range of VIZIO products,” said Allen H. Gharapetian, SRS vice president of marketing. “The inclusion of SRS TruVolume in VIZIO’s new 55” XVT HDTV and new HD Sound Bar with Wireless Subwoofer moves VIZIO to the forefront of audio technology, giving VIZIO products great differentiation in the marketplace by solving the number one complaint of television viewers worldwide. We look forward to extending our partnership with VIZIO to include this and other SRS technologies in future products.”

The first VIZIO products to ship with TruVolume are the new VF550XVT1A 55” 120Hz, 1080p LCD HDTV and their new HD Sound Bar with Wireless Subwoofer (model VSB210WS). In addition to TruVolume, the 55” XVT HDTV features SRS TruSurround HD™, a suite of technologies that provides up to 6.1 channels of playback over front facing speaker configurations, optimizes bass performance, increases dialog clarity for greater intelligibility of vocals, and adds definition to high frequencies for greater clarity.

The attractive, piano black VIZIO HD Sound Bar uses four 3” high efficiency mid/bass drivers and two 1” high performance aluminum dome neodymium tweeters. In addition to SRS TruVolume, it also features SRS TruSurround HD™ for immersive surround sound, completing the entertainment experience. The included wireless subwoofer is outfitted with a long throw 6.5" woofer augmented by SRS TruSurround HD’s notable ability to deliver deep, rich bass. The Auto Sync function ensures the subwoofer connects wirelessly to the Sound Bar for convenient plug and play operation. Only a single cable is required to connect the Sound Bar to any flat panel TV.

The VIZIO 55” XVT LCD HDTV and the HD Sound Bar with Wireless SubWoofer (model VSB210WS) will be available January 2009 at an MSRP of $1,999.99 and $349.99 respectively.
